Rare Vampires

Description
Ported Over from WH2!
This mod removes regular Vampire Lord and Strigoi ghoul kings generals from the recruitment pool, encouraging you to use Master Necromancers until you decide to use your own powerful legendary lords and Bloodline vampires.

Please don’t forget to


Context:
Vampires capable of leading an army are rare, powerful creatures who notoriously vie against one another for dominance. As such, I was never too happy with the hordes of armies being led by these vampire lords, whilst the inferior (but subservient) master necromancers sat in the general pool gathering dust. With the Bloodline mechanic introduced with Vampire Coast, I realised there was a quick way to overcome my own issue.

The solution:
By removing the ability for Vampire Count factions to recruit regular vampire lords, these factions must utilise the mortal necromancers to lead their armies and act as the vanguard for the aristocracy of the night until the more powerful vampires can be awakened.

Vampire Counting:
For those worried that their Vampire Count playthrough may be lacking in vampires, fear not! With the Bloodline mechanic you have access to the following vampires (potentially).
Vlad
Isabella
Manfred
Red Duke
3 Strigoi Bloodlines
3 Von Carstein Bloodlines
3 Blood Dragon Bloodlines
3 Lahmian Bloodlines
3 Nekrach Bloodlines.
That’s a total of 19 VERY powerful Vampiric Lords to lead the armies of the night.

This looks good but I'm concerned that the AI does not know how to use or manage Blood Kisses to get Bloodline Vampire Lords so it effectively nerfs all Vampire Count factions?

arowhf, theres a mod for that. search male vampire count lord. :)

on this occasion, you get to have your cake AND eat it too :)

Just a suggestion, but the unused Vampire lord model could be repurposed into a male vampire hero. Different lores than female - beasts, maybe even something like tempest since sylvania isn't too far from Kislev

@AsmodeusUltima I was getting that issue when paired with this mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2789863883 after disabling either this or that the issue goes away.

I think it's another mod. If this one were to cause issues it would be on loading the game. It's a simple mod so even it's conflicts would just be overwritten values, not an all out crash

Currently causing CTD during end of turn 1. Playing as Astragoth with lots of other mods, so possibly a conflict.

It should affect AI factions. But I think they will keep their startpos generic lords.
